Wu's soldiers also rushed forward and guarded Cheng Pu in the middle.
"call out!"
"Well!"
An arrow penetrated the neck of the soldier in front of Cheng Pu. Gan Ning threw away the bow and arrow and jumped onto the boat, saying, "Old General Cheng, you are always getting stronger."
Cheng Pu frowned and asked, "Who are you?"
"Gan Ning, Gan Xingba!"
"Oh. It turns out he is a Jinfan thief." Gan Ning's reputation as a Jinfan thief in the past was widely spread in Jingchu and Wuyue areas.
"Seeking death!" Gan Ning raised his knife and prepared to step forward.
"Wait a minute to achieve hegemony!" Zhang Yun also came, "Old General Cheng, a good bird chooses a tree to roost in, and a good minister chooses his master to serve. Jiangdong's defeat is a foregone conclusion, why don't you, old general, surrender to my lord?"
Cheng Pu heard this and scolded him sternly, "I have followed the Sun family for three generations, how can I surrender to you Jingchu thieves?"
Jing Chu’s thief was talking about Liu Cong. Now Zhang Yun’s face turned cold, “Xing Ba, Fang Shi, kill this old guy together!”
Gan Ning took the lead and stepped forward with a knife, "We should have done this a long time ago. Why are you talking nonsense to him? Kill him!"
"You dare to slander my lord, Cheng Pu, and you will die!" Zhang Zheng admired Liu Cong the most and was naturally furious.
"Soldiers! Fight with me!"
"kill!"
"Pfft."
Gan Ning, who had the highest force value present, repelled Cheng Pu with a sword, followed closely, and struck Cheng Pu on the shoulder with another sword! Zhang Yun and Zhang Zheng rushed forward quickly, stabbing Cheng Pu in the abdomen each with a sword!
"Kill!" Cheng Pu yelled hoarsely with blood flowing from his mouth. The sword blade stabbed Gan Ning feebly.
"Pfft!" Gan Ning dodged the edge of the sword and swung out the sword. Cheng Pu's head rolled to the ground! A column of blood spurted out from the headless neck!
"Bang!" Cheng Pu's body fell heavily to the ground. Gan Ning ignored it, stepped forward to pick up Cheng Pu's head, and raised it high, "Cheng Pu is dead, and those who surrender will not be killed!"
"Cheng Pu is dead, and those who surrender will not be killed!"
"Cheng Pu is dead, and those who surrender will not be killed!" the soldiers around him shouted!
The soldiers fighting on the nearby warships stopped fighting and looked here one after another.
"General Cheng is dead?"
"General Cheng is dead! We are defeated!"
"General Cheng is dead, we are defeated!"
Like a plague, it quickly spread to the entire battlefield!
"Surrender!"
"Run!"
Some people put down their weapons and surrendered, while the ships behind wanted to turn around and escape!
"Want to run away?" Gan Ning sneered, "Follow me!"
"Fang Shi, come with me to collect the surrendered soldiers." Zhang Zhengzheng wanted to go with him, but was stopped by Zhang Yun.
The setting sun was like blood, and the river was even more bloody.
It wasn't until the moonlight shone on the river that the Jingchu army finished sorting out the entire battlefield!
"Commander, in this battle, our army killed 12,000 enemies, surrendered more than 1,000 people, and captured 4,000 ships. Less than 300 enemy troops escaped!" In the Chinese army's tent, Zhang Yun reported the military situation to Cai Mao.
Cai Mao asked, "Where are our army's casualties?"
Zhang Yun said excitedly, "Our army has less than 4,000 injured soldiers and 3,000 dead. This is a great victory, Commander."
"It is indeed a great victory. You continue to appease the soldiers here, and I will go and report to the lord in person!"
"promise!"
"My lord, General Cai Mao wants to see you!" Liu Cong was handling military affairs in the commander's tent, and Xing Daorong came in to report.
Liu Cong put down the bamboo slips and writing brush in his hand, "Pass it in!"
"The last general Cai Mao meets the lord!"
Liu Cong said calmly, "Get up, how is the battle going?"
Cai Mao quickly replied, "Our army defeated the Jiangdong navy. This is a military report. Please read it, my lord."
Xing Daorong quickly stepped forward to take the military report and handed it to Liu Cong. Liu Cong opened it and read it for a moment.
"The Jiangdong navy only has fifteen thousand?"
Cai Hao continued to answer, "My lord, there is no trace of Huang Gai and Han Dang among the soldiers and corpses. It is estimated that they ran away."
Liu Cong rolled up the bamboo slips, banged them in his hand, and murmured to himself, "That means Sun Quan can receive the news of the naval defeat."
"In this case, Wu County must be on guard. What do you think?"
"The general thinks that we can divide our troops. There are still more than 50,000 naval troops, 20,000 will attack Moling, and 30,000 will take Wu County directly!" Cai Mao had already thought about it.
"When Wu County received the news, it must be well prepared, but Moling may not be. Huang Gai and Han Dang must be eager to tell Sun Quan the news, and they will definitely not go to Moling."
"If Moling is captured, our army can directly attack Wu County. It can also block Zhou Yu's return reinforcements."
Liu Cong thought for a while and said, "What you said makes sense. I will transfer Xu Feng's Tiger Army to you and give you five thousand more to shoot the Japanese army. You must conquer Moling and surround Wu County!"
Cai Mao was overjoyed. With these troops, he was more confident in conquering Wu County! "Thank you so much, my lord! I will definitely live up to my lord's high expectations!"
After Cai Mao left, Liu Cong immediately summoned Pang Tong.
"Lord."
Liu Cong stepped forward and grabbed Pang Tong, "Shi Yuan, sit down quickly. Cai Mao has defeated the Jiangdong navy. Gu has ordered him to go down the river to attack Moling and Wuxian. Now, what should we do?"
Pang Tong read the military newspaper and said, "Lord, we still have to surround Yuzhang. After Moling and Wuxian are lost, we can spread the news to Yuzhang City!"
"Wonderful, if this happens, the morale of the defenders in the city will plummet!"
"My lord is wise, now it's up to Cai Hao and others."
Cai Mao returned to the navy stronghold overnight. He was accompanied by Xu Feng and ten thousand soldiers. After entering the Chinese army's tent, he immediately summoned the generals.
"Meet the Governor!"
Cai Mao waved his hand, "Get up, I just went to see the lord. The lord has an order, ordering us to attack Moling and Wu County."
"We will repair it tonight, and tomorrow we will send people to send Jiangdong's soldiers and our wounded soldiers to the rear."
"The rest of the army went directly down the river. Zhang Yun and Zhang Zheng gave you 20,000 troops to attack Moling! Moling only has 3,000 defenders. If you can't conquer the city in one day, come and see us!"
"I will obey my orders!"
"The remaining 40,000 troops will accompany the capital and march directly to Wu County to capture Sun Quan's son alive!"
"promise!"
On June 16, the 15th year of Jian'an, Cai Mao, the commander of the Jingchu Navy, led a large army to defeat the Jiangdong Navy at Hukou!
The early morning sun shines on the dewdrops. Wu Jun in Yuzhang City and Liu Jun outside the city are carrying out daily bombardment and defense as always.
Liu Cong looked at the city and smiled coldly, "Zhou Gongjin, please stay here and take good care of me!"
"Woooooooo..."
In the navy's Dazhai, as the horn sounded, Zhang Yun and Zhang Zheng led the fleet out of the Dazhai!
"Sail forward! All oars will be replaced without stopping!" Zhang Yun ordered after leaving the water village.
The flagman marked his orders into semaphores and informed the ships!
Not long after, Cai Mao and other generals also led the army out. The army went down the river!
Xudu and Cao Cao also mobilized an army of 130,000, not heading south, but towards Yongliang!
"Reissue the statement and say that I will lead an army of 200,000 to conquer Liu Bei!"
"promise!"
In the 15th year of Jian'an, on June 18th, Cao Cao sent 130,000 troops, claiming to be 200,000, to conquer Liu Bei in Hanzhong!
At the same time, Huang Gai and Han Dang finally rushed back to Wu County.
"What? The navy of Jingchu broke the iron lock across the river?" Sun Quan looked at the two people kneeling on the ground in disbelief.
"Report!"
"My lord, Cai Mao defeated our army at Hukou. General Cheng Pu was killed, and the number of soldiers who escaped was less than three hundred!"
"Prison!" Huang Gai and Han Dang cried bitterly when they heard the news.
The three of them have been following the Sun family since the time of Sun Jian. They are not brothers, but more like brothers.
